I'm a Marine Engineer living in South Shields with my Wife, Daughter and Son. You'll see me tweeting about them and sports mostly.

Well done @TommyFleetwood1 what a final round that was!

[B E N @boh82]

@MattP1Tommy Cars not being able to follow one another due to “dirty air” is ruining the sport and I doubt next years regs will fix it. We’ve been talking about this for sooo long now.

@HMS_Str_Castle He should go into business! One of those would look great on top of one of my monitors.

Not thrilled to come home and have this monster run across my legs though!

Had a great week off, spent time in the Lake District with the Family. Good to get away and forget about the Ships for a while.

Really interesting to see the difference in hull corrosion protection compared to a similar one we have in Dock at the moment. I prefer our paint scheme though.

I think this might be the worst #ManUtd post I’ve ever seen. Hard to pick a bit I hate the most, but Bockhom and Rashtord is right up there. And the pictures?! Who are these people?

@StuartBroad8 I think if he hadn’t brought his right arm down it wouldn’t have been a yellow. Not much he can do in the air to change direction, but it’s that arm across the chest for me.

@lara_e_brown And I can totally sympathise, I’d be very frustrated too if there were CCTV footage and the police essentially won’t look through it.

[B E N @boh82]

@lara_e_brown OP has said the crime was cutting brake cables on bikes. Though the principle is sound, and agree is simple for something being stolen or graffiti, I suspect it would be difficult to detect whether the cables were in tact or not on CCTV footage.

@FakeShowbizNews So one of the “facts” I’ve always known is: Red wine should be at room temp, but rooms are warmer now a days. 30 mins in the fridge before drinking will have it at the perfect temp. I’ve no idea where I picked this up or if it’s true?!

[B E N @boh82]

@GraemePeacock1 Haha, I dunno, haven’t been up since it was finished. Photo looks great though.

[B E N @boh82]

TUC Congress sends a message of solidarity to our striking members at the Royal Fleet Auxiliary.

The united message from across the trade union movement is FAIR PAY RFA!

🚨 RFA DISPUTE 🚨

Nautilus general secretary Mark Dickinson moving the emergency motion to support our members at the Royal Fleet Auxiliary.

“To the government, I say this: you are sending a message, a message our members have received since 2010, that we don’t value you, we don’t hear you and we won’t support you. This not good enough.“

The motion was supported unanimously!
